title: Consultation-liaison in child psychiatry: a review of the past 10 years. Part II: Research on treatment approaches and outcomes.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To critically review the research and reports on consultation-liaison psychiatry in the past 10 years.
  
  
  METHODS
  Articles contributing to the conceptualization of child psychiatric consultation in medical, epidemiological, and nonmedical domains were reviewed.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Information was organized into methodology and treatment outcome categories. Nonmedical consultation articles were briefly reviewed. Articles reporting therapeutic techniques in consultation-liaison work and outcome studies are described.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  In spite of constraints imposed by managed care upon referral to specialists, the current epoch finds child psychiatrists both better equipped and more compelled to use their skills in innovative ways to help children in different domains.
